Necro Master

* * *

Suddenly, my vision changed. It was completely different from the underground sights I had seen so far. The third floor, which is huge in size from space, is the size of the World Cup stadium for football. There was even a spectator seat. although, of course, there were no viewers.

A loyalty was summoned to the center of such a space. It wasn't just loyalty. There were people nearby who had never seen it before. In total, there were four of them. A white male with tattoos all over his body and a woman with model-like luggage. And 90 feet tall enough to be a healthy black man. Everyone looks like they're in their 20s.

‘I'm finally meeting people for the first time. ’

They stared at each other and opened the distance. They too would have seen the tombstone's words, as if they were loyal, and were afraid that they might be killed. They also appeared discreet like the characters who had passed through the second floor of the basement.

Whether they were wary of each other or not, they recognized the change that was happening immediately.

‘Hmm, and by the way, Daphne was automatically recalled. ’

It seemed to be moving to the third floor underground. While looking into the situation, it was a black man who opened his mouth first. Surprisingly, the language he spoke was the first I heard of loyalty, but I understood its meaning.

“I don't want useless conflicts. I hope you don't have to go behind the scenes to get Karma. ”

First, a blonde white woman agreed with the opinion of a black man who opened his mouth.

“I agree. I don't know how powerful the monsters will be. We work together. I'm Raleigh. ”

When Raleigh introduced himself, a black man told him his name.

“I am Marek. What about you?”

Then he jabbered at a white man. Then he reveals his name. He simply said his name, whether he didn't like to say it long.

“Wayne.”

The three who knew each other's names looked at each other with loyalty. But loyalty did not confront their gaze. A place at one end of the stadium. There was a line of sight in the athlete's waiting room. There, something was twitching as if it were about to pop out. I wasn't looking at them, but I opened my mouth because I had to answer first.

“Chong-ryul Lee. By the way... I don't think it's the right time to be introducing yourself right now. ”

The words of loyalty were true. It's because there was this one guy who started showing up at one end. As soon as the loyalty was finished, the earth shook.

Kuku Ball Bow.

There was a slight vibration in one of the audience seats made of stone. Whether the entrance to get out was narrow or not, the man who did not get out of the waiting room struggled as if he was about to break through the entrance. It was a vibration caused by it.

The size of the creature from afar was unusual. Assuming the approximate size, two high-speed buses were about the same size together. The entrance is about to collapse as he tries to get past the entrance that a person would walk through.

After all, the warning of loyalty brought everyone's gaze to one place. Everyone who found him was surprised.

“What the...! ”

“That big? ”

But I didn't have to try to figure it out.

It's because the system told us about him even before the party was fully aware of him.

[Catacombs]

[Basement Level 3 - Giant larvae.]

But was it an urgent situation? The system's voice became urgent because of the situation.

[On the third floor of the catacombs lies a giant larva!]

[Giant larvae who don't know what monster they'll grow into.]

[It's hard to tell how dangerous the monster will turn into in the future.]

[Eliminate him to prepare for future dangers!]

But that wasn't all the way the system suggested.

[If you think you can't handle him, then one of you must be sacrificed.]

[Sacrifice must be made before he breaks through the gate.]

[I don't care if it's a living person or a dead body.]

[Once he's satisfied, he'll be quiet for a while.]

[Other challengers will come and deal with it.]

[Remaining time until entrance is broken: 5 minutes.]

There were two paths that challengers could choose:

Hunt him down.

Or sacrifice one of their own.

However, the loyalty to the continued reward solidified the idea.

[Reward upon successful removal: unlocks a unique characteristic of the job and enters the Challenger's Camp.]

[Reward for offering: Enter the Challenger's Camp.]

‘I'd better get rid of it somehow. ’

Successful hunting, different rewards than offering sacrifices. Plus, unlocking the unique character of the job, which is the reward for successful hunting. It won't be worth throwing away.

‘If I make the wrong choice this time, I may be left behind enough later. ’

It was a loyalty that came with the same heart as the users of Zgem. However, I did not intend to walk the path that would be difficult for me to get comfortable now. In the beginning, loyalty hated the act of losing.

‘It's a unique characteristic of the job, so there must be something special about it. ’

It was literally opening up the unique characteristics of the job. Then you'll get what you can't get with your skills.

"We hunt giant larvae at all times. ’

However, it did not seem easy to deal with larvae at first sight. There was not even a weapon to attack the monster. Unlike the Goblins who collapse weakly when hit. It was a question of whether hitting could harm a giant larva, no matter how hard it hit.

Is that why? Whether everyone thought the same, the group's gaze shifts at the moment. We tried to cooperate, but the description of the system made the boundaries to each other even worse.

When we watch out for each other, another black man named Marek opened his mouth first.

“You might want to start with your skills. ”

Raleigh replies with a look of disbelief.

“How can I trust you and tell you my skills? ”

Marek speaks first, as if he had anticipated Raleigh's reaction.

“Then you can start with me. My job is Priest. You don't have attack skills. It's a buff skill called" Sturdy Defense. "Greatly reduces damage from physical attacks. You can put it on someone else. ”

When Marek speaks of his skills, Wayne, who was quiet, opens his mouth. He only said the essence of whether he didn't want to continue.

“I won't reveal my profession. The possessed skill prevents enemies from moving for a set period of time with a 'set trap’. ”

Railey was impressed by Marek and Wayne's skills.

“So none of us have any aggressive skills? ”

Then she reveals her skills. I was no longer reluctant because others told me about my skills

“I'm an Elementalist. Right now, the only skill you have is the shield. It can be used by others, of course. You have the same skills as Marek. ”

She said so, looking at the loyalty at the same time.

“What about you?”

But loyalty did not immediately answer.

‘Am I the only one who started with two skills? ’

I didn't think they'd tell me one lie. But it didn't matter.

‘I'll tell you one thing for now. Hidden cards always have to be there. ’

Loyalty has decided to tell you a skill you can use right away. It was a life drain. It appears that the Skeleton Soldier won't be the target of the larvae from afar anyway. So I decided to hide what I could about the summons.

Of course, the life drain was not fully explained. They told me they told me their skills, but I didn't intend to believe them immediately.

“I have a skill called Life Drain. A skill that continuously draws out the HP of its opponent and kills them. ”

The user merely says that it draws out the HP of its target. It did not reveal its ability to recover by drawing out its life force.

It was a skill belonging to Immortality. Few people have the talent to immortalize themselves, so I wouldn't have any doubts.

Anyway, a white woman named Raleigh nods as she explains her skills.

“Fortunately, there is a means to attack the larvae. ”

Marek listened to his skill of loyalty and replied as if he was satisfied.

“Then I suggest you get Buff to that Asian friend of yours as much as possible. We'll keep an eye on the larvae while we protect him. ”

Then a woman named Railey nods.

“I agree. I don't like it, but it's the best way to defeat the larvae. ”

Wayne doesn't have an answer, but his loyalty to hearing Marek and Raleigh's thoughts comes to mind.

‘Glad to hear it's about hunting larvae. ’

When used on Goblins, it was definitely a life drain. I was wondering if it would work for the giant larvae, but at least it looks like it could do some damage.

‘You have to try it yourself anyway. ’

If I came to a conclusion, I would not hesitate. He had to attack the larvae on his own anyway. Moreover, combined with Marek's solid defense and Raleigh's shield, you may be able to withstand some larval attacks.

If he could not bear it, he retreated and peered at the opportunity. I was somewhat confident with my level of 2. Even if the larvae attack us, we can avoid it a few times if we try hard.

The faithfulness that outlined my thoughts answered.

“Then please drive me to Buff now. I'll be ahead of you soon. ”

Marek opens his mouth without hesitation. It was a situation where loyalty gained buff skills and was able to attack. Nevertheless, he used the buff on his loyalty without a doubt.

“Strong defense. ”

When Marek uses a skill, a translucent light shield is created. Then I infiltrated into the body of my loyalty. At the same time, the system comes to light. Whether he lied about his skills or not, the real Buff Skill was triggered.

[A ‘solid defense’ effect occurred.]

[Slightly reduces physical damage taken for 10 minutes.]

But is it because he used the skill? Marek settles down.

“Ugh. Let's take a 30-second break and get going." My goal is too resonating with my skills. ”

It didn't matter. There was still plenty of time left at the top.

[Entrance shatters in 3 minutes and 20 seconds.]

However, unlike Marek, Raleigh noticed a little.

I knew what loyalty meant. It is doubtful that loyalty is really going to hunt down the oil. Of course, even if she suspected it, she didn't care much. Just shrug your shoulders and keep your distance from her.

“It doesn't matter if you don't use a skill. But I have to hunt him down. ”

And the loyalty really got the best of me. A place closer to the larvae than the rest of the group. You've given me far enough distance.

Then Raleigh, who was suspicious, eventually used her skills as a feeling of desperation.

“I can't help it. I'll believe it for now. Shield.”

The translucent blue membrane envelops the surrounding area with her skill.

[A 'shield’ effect has occurred.]

[Shield absorbs some damage instead. Shield will be destroyed if maximum is exceeded.]

Of course, like Marek, she settled down when she used her skills.

“I'm sorry, but I just need 40 seconds. ”

Naturally, even after 30 to 40 seconds, the sequelae of using skills did not completely go away.

‘But with that amount of time, it means it's time to move a little smoothly. ’

Raleigh looks at his loyalty as he waits for the pain to subside. But loyalty has no intention of attacking a defenseless group.

‘You worry a lot about her. ’

Meanwhile, the entrance for larvae to emerge was still being smashed. Is that why? In fact, loyalty turns away from the group. I looked at the entrance where the larvae were going to come out.

Kukwabang!

Kuku Kung!

The larvae crashed through the elongated entrance as if they wanted to come out as soon as possible. The cracks appear to be fracturing the entrance immediately.

‘We still have a little time left, so let's look at the characteristics of larvae. ’

Due to this, faithfulness carefully observed the movements of the larvae and looked at the remaining time.

[Entrance shatters in 3 minutes and 7 seconds.]

It was then that I was studying larvae. Suddenly, you hear a terrifying sound behind your loyalty.

Phew.

It was not the sound from the body of loyalty. The origin of the sound was where Marek was located.

What the hell is that? ’

It was like pulling an organ out of a living creature. In fact, it was not loud, but the unconscious intent sounded a crisis alarm. That's why even the slightest sensitive sound caused the ears of the loyalty to react loudly.

‘No way...? ’

The feeling of crisis quickly turned away.
